Trump Jr.’s wedding should prompt a reappraisal of the collusion question, as it illuminates what @davidcorn.bsky.social try to convey in the book: Putin has been running an extensive covert action against the US for a decade, and Trump and his crew have both colluded and been complicit.
Time to revisit Trump-Russia collusion
Or better yet, complicity.

"Across the S&P 500, the firms that resisted the anti-DEI executive order paid no financial price in the long run. The ones that folded did so unnecessarily, the data suggests."

Do not comply in advance.

Good news: a federal judge just paused Wilber's deportation.

The government shouldn’t be allowed to shoot you from an unmarked vehicle and then cover it up by deporting you.

Keep speaking out, it's working.

No matter what side of the aisle you’re on, this argument should be chilling.

Trying to limit freedom of the press under the guise of national security is what tinpot dictators do. That’s not how a functioning democracy works.

A massive immigration operation is happening in Memphis. It’s been underway for just under a year now—hundreds of arrests, streets filled with officers. But most people have never heard of it. Why?

It’s harder to record ICE in Tennessee than it is in many states.
Memphis has spent a year under federal occupation. ICE would rather you didn't notice.
Watch as these officers arrest an activist for documenting from a reasonable distance.

“DON’T PANIC,” RIGHT?

Fine. Don’t panic. ORGANIZE.

📌 A USPS whistleblower is warning the mail-ballot system could face “catastrophic failure” before the midterms.

Make your voting plan now.

Vote early, in person, or use a secure drop box. Don’t leave your vote to chance.

This morning in Danbury, ICE was arresting parents at school bus stops.

But it’s more sinister. ICE waited until the kids were on the bus so when they are dropped off at the end of the day, they are alone, scared to death they can’t find their parents.
